ooc:

Ello everyone!

I've been focused on moving for the past few days, and thusly not focused on rp! Yesterday was a nice 9hr drive across my state, and so I'm still a bit out of it.

This all said, I will be working on all of the needed replies over the next lil bit! If you see me posting with other characters and not here, I apologize in advance! It's nothing against the threads themselves, and more so Tobi being a bit harder to properly characterize than some of my other, older, characters.

Still, I will be working on replies, I will see you all then! <3

[trickshot-tobi]

Oh, I'm Tobi-- Tobias, by the way!

Tobi either- doesn't notice that she didn't answer his question, or is too caught up in tying to remember where he knows her from to point it out.

Oh yeah, I get that! Plus tryin' ta get used to how things work over here, a bit backwards from back home. I wish you well on landin' new employment!

There’s a woman in a waist coat and top hat. You know her. Shes supposed to be back in the states. But she’s here. And she’s putting up a poster for… you think it’s for a performance? There’s no name or instructions. Just an address and a time.

@norabbitsinmyhat

Tobias stares for a short moment, trying to piece together the recollection, and slowly makes his way over. He smiles with a small wave.

'Ello there, I'm sorry if this sounds strange, but- don' I know you from somewhere?

[trickshot-tobi]

Pfh- why doesn't that surprise me? They're goofy lil things, but- I can ver' much see 'em bein' the type to pass that sorta thing.

Yeah, I still ain't decided if I'm gonna try to have any rascals of my own, but it's a nice thought. I'm thinkin' I gotta find a place here to start up a new ranch first, though. Even if they don't end up takin' to it, if I had kids, I'd like 'em to know their way around a field and livestock.

Oh yeah, first thing I tried, and he was interested in it for about thirty some-odd seconds before decidin' that the post tasted better. That goofball.

'Course! I ain't never had radiation poisionin', but havin' a horse kick the shit outta your hand leads down a long road of stretches and pt to try an' get it back to normal.

Oh absolutely! These things aren't somethin' just anyone should have. I mean, bein' able to kill someone outright- and so quickly? Eugh. There's a reason I wanted somethin' where I gotta make that decision. Like, yeah, if I aim for someone's head or chest, they're goin' to the next life - but if I go for a leg, or a hand, then their whole life ain't goin' away. Livin' normally might be harder, sure, but that'll be better than simply not livin'.

Yeah, at first I thought I was just bein' paranoid, but.. after seein' what it did to the other animals on the farm- eugh. If somebody else told me the story, I wouldn't've believed it myself.

Oh good gods, you've sure got me beat! If you're ever alright to share the details, I'm sure it'd be an interestin' story.

Tobi grins and tips his hat in response to the wave. He makes his way over to the stranger and lets out what sounds to be a relieved laugh.

Well I'll be damned! I did'n expect to see another rancher out here, let alone so quickly inta my comin' across the pond! I like your lil' hat buddie, too, looks damned real!

He chuckles again and offers his hand to shake.

Names Tobias Shawe.

[trickshot-tobi]

ooc: I apologize for disappearing from this account for the last couple of days!! I've got some big lore I'm planning for another and this/my other rp blogs sorta fell to the wayside! I'm going to work up replies rn, and will try to stay on top of things, but there's still a p good chance that I'll get sidetracked again, so apologies in advance for if that does end up happening!

[trickshot-tobi]

Tobi nods again, then tilts his head. It takes him a moment to recall what book that would be from, then chuckles.

Character- oh! That's the girl that the whole wonderland thing was made for, right? I s'pose that would be neat. Ya know, I never thought about characters when it came to lookin' for a name. Might'a made things easier overall, pfh-

While Tobias strolls the streets of London,his eyes catch sight of a very peculiar person: they're tall and quite lanky,dressed in a style that is reminiscent of 90's witch films. If the outfit wasn't eye catching enough,they have a head full of fluffy lavender curls. Something about them makes him both intrigued and uneasy.

Tobi finds himself staring, even though he's got the feeling that he shouldn't. And after a good bit of internally arguing with himself, he starts to jog over. He's got a bit of a lopsided grin and his brows are drawn close in slight confusion.

Hello, ma'am ‐ look, I am real sorry to bother, but I just wanted to say that you're quite beautiful, and I love your style. Also- wanted to apologize for the starin'. Eye-catchin' or not, my mama raised me better than that.

[trickshot-tobi]

Good to see you to! What a coincidence, I ain't never would'a guessed I'd see anyone I knew coming here. Though- embarrassin' as it is- I can't quite remember your name?

I've been alright, for the most part! And yourself?

[trickshot-tobi]

Tobi relaxes, and nods a bit too quick.

Oh, yeah! It took'a while for me to settle on Tobias, but when I felt that feelin' I knew it was the right one! And boy did I have a list to work through, pfh

[trickshot-tobi]

Ah, it's pretty runna the mill back home.

Thank you for the help, Wren, I'll go ahead and get outa your hair. You take care now.

He grins and tips his hat, then starts to wander through the tunnels. Clearly he doesn't know where he's going, but still seems to be at the very least, self assured.

The whispers of a far-off gunshot echos through the tunnels. Then another. Then one much closer. Silence, then a footsteps and muttered cussing. Then, a very confused man gets within earshot of Wren.

Shit-! Fuck, I am so, so sorry sweetheart— I don' really know how I got here, then I saw somethin' fuckin- movin around and I thought I was in danger so I started firing shots to try an' scare the fucker off. Didn't mean for it to go that last direction- you ain't hurt, are ya?

The man has to take deep breaths after his rambling, and has a very concerned expression. He also, looks comically like a stereotypical cowboy.

oh no I’m fine uh….you’re new. You, wait what did you see?

[trickshot-tobi]

Well.. alrighty then. If ya say so, I s'pose.

He grins, though there's still a twinge of unease in his expression.

Oh, that is a pretty name! Did'ya pick it yourself? Sorry- that's probably a strange question, you don't have'ta answer it.

[trickshot-tobi]

Pfh- well, I've had my fair share of experience with that type, I think if I run inta him I oughta be able to handle it.

[trickshot-tobi]

Huh.. say, d'you think he'd cross the ocean? I'm feelin' a bit bad now at the idea that he'd might think I left him behind.

Tobi tilts his head when he asks the question, then as Basra's crows gather, he lets out a quiet laugh, and gives a small wave. Then, in respect for the wary birds, he takes a half-step back. Animals or not, they still deserve to feel comfortable.

Oh it ain't easy in the slightest, but it's worth it! I plan to give this to my kid, assuming I ever have one. They absolutely will! One of the fuckers would always chew on the fence post outside'a their section of the barn! At first I thought he was hungry, but no, just determined with a taste for iron!

Well gods damn! You're the adventurous type, ain't'ya? Pfh, I will take your word for it! Good thing that ya didn't lose the hand. As fer stretches, one'a the ones I've found most helpful is usin' the other hand to help fully flex the problem one. It may feel a bit tight at first, but the longer that'ya work it, the less tense the muscles'll be!

Damned right I do! Was raised up keepin' shotguns around, but I take to pistols by preference. Find 'em better for incapacitatin' without necessarily outrigh' killin.

Ah, had a problem on the ranch with some freaky shit. Newborn lamb came out all.. wrong like. Killed the rest'a my animals, and looked at me like I was prey, so I booked it. I think I killed tha thing, but I wasn't exactly sure if I actually put it down or if it was just playin' dead. Plus my hometown in general was pretty aligned with the strange side'a things.

How 'bout yourself?

[trickshot-tobi]

Well only one of 'em ever left me anythin. I sure hope he ain't confused with my sudden leavin'.

It ain't been easy upkeep, but I been usin' leather conditioner, keepin' it away from water, and typically outta any sorta high temperatures when I can. It has lightened up a bit though, but that's just from bein' in the sun. One'a my goats did like to nibble on it when I wasn't payin' attention, though! That didn't help very much.

He laughs shortly and shakes his head at the recollection. Then he gives a nod.

Oh, dealin' with muscle spasms? Ya' know a good way to help prevent 'em is doin' hand stretches. Oh, well ain't that interestin'! Yes'm, exactly correct! Texas, specifically.

[trickshot-tobi]

My, that is interestin'! I should'a made my trip over the pond sooner! But- got it, eyes to the sky. Or- well, ceilin' I guess.

And uh, is this Leitner dangerous? Or more'va moron who can't hurt anythin' even if he tried?

Tobi pauses, then nods.

Well then, I s'pose it's time I do take my leave, which way is the exit? And the best way to avoid that Lightner fella you mentioned?

Well, it'sa good thing she has ya, especially after bein' alright with the situation prior.

"Nice to see a fellow American. I'm Cass, currently been living in Utah. Don't mind the blindfold, I can still see. It's a whole story."

-📼(@a-pizza-the-action-97)

Ditto! You can call me Tobi! Utah, huh? How is it there? I never really branched out from Texas before this move to London!

And.. alright- I assume it's relatively see-through?

[trickshot-tobi]

You keep crows? Damn! That is mighty impressive! I tried to feed 'em back home when they'd stop up by the house, but didn' seem like none of 'em wanted my company.

Hell yeah, and thank you! Got it passed down from my great grandpapie. He loved the work, though typically did gardenin' rather than anythin with animals.

Tobi didn't really react to the extra pressure, just gave a nod and another quiet chuckle.

You were taught how ta give a good handshake, huh! It's mighty nice to meet you too! Oh? Where'ya from originally, if I can ask?
